I want to compile a short list of genuine spelling traps for PROFESSIONAL translators and writers in English (i.e., not the typical ones recieve*, difference between effect and affect, etc). I haven\'t found anything at the professional level on the Internet (yet).

These are the ones I have come across:

accommodate

inoculate

supersede

desiccate

privilege

Can you add more? I can forward a list once completed to anyone who\'s interested.

Thanks in advance!

MORE:

imminent

anaesthesia

abscess

allotted

battalion

cirrhosis

embarrass

idiosyncrasy
